Automatic Reboot: RouterOS on RouterBoard

Dear All,

Is there anyway to get the RouterOS to automatically reboot daily? We have them installed on all our sites operating as a hotspot - a daily reboot seems to clear any problems we have. If I could set them to reboot automatically at 0300 for example, that would excellent.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just add a schedule task:

/ system scheduler 
add name="reboot" on-event="system reboot" start-date=jan/01/1970 start-time=03:00:00 interval=1d comment="" disabled=no

Thanks for the help!

whats the point of getting mikrotik if you have to reboot them daily like with a consumer router?

If you have to reboot a mikrotik every day then there is a issue with the hardware itself or a config issue causing the issues.

I have MT’s with around 700 days uptime and they are still going strong.

Hi, since this thread has went this way like it or not if your customer has a lot of connections and you’re saving in hardware, it is better to reboot it daily. Sometimes the board seems unusable. Recently I installed one and the customer almost threw it out because of this problem. All I had to do was create this script and voila problem solved! no more complaints. I had to do this because I could not find what the actual problem is, unfortunately
